Electric charges interact with changing magnetic fields. All magnetic field changes can be thought of as the magnetic field moving. If the magnetic field strength is increasing then it is the same as a magnet being brought nearer while a decreasing magnetic field is the same as if a magnet is being pulled away.

The force a charge experiences is the result of several factors. The direction of the force depends on the polarity of the charge, whether it is positive or negative, the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of relative motion between the charge and magnetic field. The magnitude of the force, its strength, depends upon the amount of charge, the strength of the magnetic field and the speed of the relative motion between them.

So you can make charges inside a piece of wire move by waving a magnet near the wire. If the wire makes a circuit, then you get electric current flowing through that circuit. A generator is a device which uses the interaction between charges and changing magnetic fields to create electric current. Generators require a source of mechanical energy to run. Portable generators typically use gasoline while generators used by the electric power company can be driven by water, wind, coal, natural gas or the heat from nuclear fission. Coal is the most common source of energy for electricity in the United States.

A: Resistance is not produced as a function of both voltage and current. It is a constant produced by electrons in orbit counts in an element. See Periodic Table

How does electromagnetic induction produce induced current?

Before you can understand how electrical energy is supplied by your electric company, you need to know how it is produced. A magnet and a conductor, such as a wire, can be used to induce a current in the conductor. The key is motion. An electric current is induced in a conductor when the conductor moves through a magnetic field. Generating an electric current from the motion of a conductor through a magnetic field is called electromagnetic induction. Current that is generated in this way is called induced current. To induce a current in a conductor, either the conductor can move through the magnetic field or the magnet itself can move.


When an electric charge moves through a conductor there is an electric in the conductor?

Why you get electric shock when current flows opposite direction in a conductor?

When current flows in a conductor you do not get an electric shock provided you do not touch the conductor.


Can Magnetism cause an electric current to flow in a conductor?

Yes, a MOVING magnetic field will cause electric current to flow in a conductor. Conversely an electric current flowing in a conductor will cause a magnetic field.
